Longevity: Starting with an infant's innate growth potential

Chapter 70: The Method of Refining the Azure Lotus Flame (To be available tomorrow!)

"The Azure Lotus Flame?"

Turning his head to look at the lotus platform in his master's palm, Zhou Ling was slightly taken aback and asked in surprise.

The lotus platform in Zi Ling's hand was about the size of a palm, and its surface emitted a blue glow, radiating a luster like that of jade, making it appear quite mysterious.

"This Azure Lotus Flame Seed is a flame of heaven and earth, formed from earth fire. It takes a hundred years to condense into shape and a thousand years to become a flame seed. Once refined, the flame seed will condense into azure spiritual fire, called Azure Lotus Spirit Flame."

"In the future, we will be able to gradually cleanse our bodies and improve our spiritual roots."

Holding the jade-like lotus platform in her hand, Zi Ling spoke calmly.

[Your Beast Flame and Spirit Flame absorb the Qi of Fire, increasing the Qi-Absorbing Spirit Flame by 1, the Beast Flame's grade by 1, and the Spirit Flame's grade by 1.]

Zhou Ling licked his lips, his heart pounding with excitement, and asked, "Master, is this for me?"

I never expected that my master, who usually doesn't talk much except when he drinks, could produce such rare and precious treasures.

Could it be that I drank too much spirit wine and am feeling uneasy?
Moreover, she just said that her disciple Zi Ling couldn't possibly only be at the Golden Core stage.

Could it be that Master is a Nascent Soul cultivator?

Or at the very least, a Golden Core cultivator!
Zhou Ling was thrilled. A master with the cultivation of a Golden Core cultivator—wouldn't he be able to walk sideways in Lingxia Immortal City from now on?

It should be noted that the Lingxia Immortal City is currently governed by only two early-stage Golden Core ancestors from the Lingxia Sect.

But then again, it doesn't seem right.

Since Master is a Golden Core cultivator, why would he live in a place as barren as Maple Leaf Mountain?
Zhou Ling couldn't understand it at all!
However, he didn't think too much about it, after all, the master can only lead you to the door, the cultivation is up to you.

I am currently just a low-level rogue cultivator at the fourth level of Qi Refining. Let alone a Golden Core cultivator, being able to reach the Foundation Establishment stage is already a great achievement.

After all, in Lingxia Immortal City, Foundation Establishment cultivators can already live quite well.

In her parents' eyes, she was already at the level of a superior person!
Wang Xin, standing to the side, looked at the Flame Lotus Platform, slowly chewing and swallowing her food. Her clear, spring-like eyes widened, filled with surprise and curiosity.

"Ok!"

Zi Ling took a sip of spirit wine, then ate a few slices of sashimi, and said seriously, "However, refining this Azure Lotus Fire Seed is not easy. The fire seed is born of nature and contains violent flame power!"

"If not handled properly, it could endanger your life at any moment!"

As she finished speaking, a faint fluctuation of spiritual energy appeared in her hand.

The next moment, a burst of azure flames rose from the lotus platform.

Zhou Ling instantly and clearly felt the surrounding temperature suddenly rise.

The lotus platform radiated light, revealing a blue lotus flower shape inside, as if carved from jade, perfectly formed by nature.

At first glance, the crystal-clear, flickering flames exude a lively yet volatile aura.

Swallowing hard, Zhou Ling looked at the Fire Lotus Platform and asked respectfully, "Master, how do I refine this Fire Lotus Platform?"

Although he had collected the beast fire last time, the main reason at the time was that the beast fire contained the mark of the Haoyang Bird Demon Core.

This wisp of demon core imprint dominates the beast fire, and it was only recently born, which is why his [Demonic Beast Pressure] talent was able to easily form a spiritual imprint.

This also prevented him from being attacked by the beast fire during the process of subduing it.

Otherwise, why would they have so easily collected the beast fire?

But the situation with this Azure Lotus Flame is completely different.

It may look gentle and docile, but it is sealed by its master.

Once the seal is broken, the flames contained within the fire seed will erupt, and it is estimated that they will be extremely violent.

Given my physical condition, I might not be able to withstand it.

Although his cultivation and physique have improved considerably since he successfully acquired the fused beast fire.

However, that time was aided by the [Beast Intimidation] talent, so it wasn't a true fusion of the fire seed.

He estimated that it would be impossible to merge the fire into the source out of thin air like that.

Zi Ling's magic power fluctuated slightly, and the flame on the lotus platform gradually dimmed. Seeing the adoring looks on Zhou Ling and the other's faces, she finally showed satisfaction. She then picked up her wine gourd, took a sip, and slowly spoke.

"Although this Azure Lotus Flame is not yet of grade, the flame it contains is extremely powerful and fierce. Even a late-stage Qi Refining cultivator would not be able to withstand it. With your cultivation level, refining it will not be easy."

"In addition to needing to cultivate a high-level fire-refining technique, two auxiliary items are also required."

"A second-tier Blood Lotus Fusion Pill and a second-tier True Cloud Cold Spring!"

"Blood Lotus Fusion Pill, this is an essential item for fusing fire seeds. It can protect the body's meridians and flesh. Otherwise, even a Foundation Establishment cultivator may not be able to withstand the burning of the fire seed for long during the fusion process."

"Furthermore, during the fusion process, the medicinal properties are released, which can accelerate the fusion of the sparks."

"As for the True Cloud Cold Spring, it mainly works on the Qi Sea and Spiritual Acupoints. It can protect your spiritual power from being burned out when you are refining the 'Fire Seed'."

Zhou Ling opened his mouth, not expecting that these two auxiliary items were needed. His expression froze, and he said helplessly, "Master, where am I supposed to find these things?"

Although I knew in my heart that these two things would definitely be hard to find, I couldn't miss out on the Azure Lotus Fire Seed, such a rare treasure of heaven and earth.

“I happen to have a high-level fire refining technique on hand. Also, you can ask Wang Yu to refine this Blood Lotus Fire Fusion Pill.”

"It requires materials such as second-tier blood lotus and second-tier golden ginseng, so you'll have to figure out how to get them yourself."

"As for the True Cloud Cold Spring, you'll have to ask Wang Yu to inquire about it for you."

"Although there's no rush to fuse with this Azure Lotus Flame, the faster you fuse with it, the greater the benefit to your cultivation in all aspects!"

Zi Ling smiled.

Zhou Ling nodded, knowing that with his current cultivation level and social circle in Lingxia Immortal City, finding a second-tier spiritual item was not very realistic.

Wang Yu, being a second-grade alchemist, naturally had her own methods.

All I can do is try to find the elixir first.

However, this Blood Lotus is a second-tier spiritual herb, and to find it, one must definitely enter the inner mountain of Black Cloud Mountain.

Moreover, without a goal or direction, it becomes even more difficult to find one.

"Let's ask Uncle Chu and the others again later and see if we can find out anything!"

Zhou Ling thought to himself.

As for going to the pharmacy to inquire, having had the experience of buying Ningyuan Grass last time, he had no such idea.

Second-tier spiritual herbs like these are usually purchased by large pharmacies or aristocratic families as soon as they enter the market, and rarely circulate in the general market.

Even if you have spirit stones, it's very difficult to buy them.

"I'll give you this Azure Lotus Flame Seed, and then I'll teach you the incantation to open the seal."

"However, remember, do not attempt to refine this fire seed without being fully prepared!"

Zi Ling handed the Azure Lotus Flame to Zhou Ling and gave him instructions.

"Thank you, Master!"

Reaching out to accept the Azure Lotus Flame, Zhou Ling respectfully expressed his gratitude.

The area where he touched it was scorching hot. Even though it was sealed, Zhou Ling could feel a violent aura surging into his body.

If it weren't for cultivating the Spirit Flame Technique and condensing spirit flames, Zhou Ling probably wouldn't even be able to hold it.

After carefully putting away the Azure Lotus Flame, he hurriedly served Zi Ling a bowl of chicken soup.
